The detailed study of electrical power systems is a key element of many curricula in Industrial Technology. A novel laboratory set-up has been designed and implemented at the University of Northern Iowa as an instructional resource for teaching electrical power system and renewable energy concepts. The set-up consists of a photo-voltaic solar-cell array, a mast mounted wind generator, lead-acid...

The main purpose of this work is to investigate the porous medium and diffusion-thermo effects on unsteady combined convection magneto hydrodynamics boundary layer flow of viscous electrically conducting fluid over a vertical permeable surface embedded in a high porous medium, in the presence of first order chemical reaction and thermal radiation. The slip boundary condition is applied at the p...

Recent research has described a component of human electrical brain activity (the ERN or NE) that is associated with error-processing. In the present experiment, we used magneto-encephalographic recordings to provide converging evidence both for the existence of this component and for its putative source in the brain. Six human subjects performed a Go-NoGo task while both magnetoencephalographi...

The present study aims to investigate the analysis of stress, strain, displacement, and electrical potential of a thick hollow cylinder made of FGPM under mechanical and thermal loads. Distribution of mechanical property of material is considered along the shell stick through the power distribution function. Thermal loads have been taken to signify the difference of temperature between outer an...

The paper is devoted to the remote control of a thermo-optical plant that is used for experimental work at Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology STU in Bratislava. The presented approach is based on the created Java clientserver application that enables to connect the graphical user interface with the Matlab engine running on the server.

Nanoparticulate agents for magnetic drug delivery systems (DDSs) have extensive applications in targeted drug delivery, contrast imaging and therapeutics. However, no simple synthetic method for magnetic DDS agents has been developed without the need to add magnetic nanoparticles. Here, we describe the one-step fabrication of ‘all-in-one’ magneto-assemblies using an ‘inorganic-metal-salt-free’ ...

Residual stresses may exist in different finitely deformed soft multifunctional materials such as electro-active and magneto-active polymers. In order to develop accurate constitutive frameworks of these smart experiencing electro-magneto-mechanically coupled loads, the presence residual needs be considered on onset model development. this contribution, a spectral equation for finite strain mag...
